Lin Yao rarely sat together with Zhong Xiu and Zhu Nianqiao.
As the company expands, many departments are involved in most meetings.
This has also led to more and more mid-level and senior management attending meetings.
but.
This time the situation is somewhat special.
Lin Yao just had an idea.
Although she subjectively wanted to write a longer "love letter", she also had to take into account the company's internal workload.
So this time she didn't call so many people, but first called the heads of the two main product departments to discuss it.
As for the mobile gaming sector.
They are relatively independent, and their mobile games are quite different from traditional games, unlike games in the console and PC departments that often have dual-platform logins.
Lin Yao was not named Kang Yi.
"Fill in the gaps?"
Zhong Xiu sat opposite Lin Yao, holding the Future PAD and asked.
"Yeah." Lin Yao nodded.
"But isn't it too much?"
Zhong Xiu put down the Future PAD and rubbed his eyebrows: "And most games only have game names... Is it really feasible?"
"You mean workload? That's definitely a problem..."
Lin Yao nodded, but her words were half-finished.
Zhong Xiu interrupted her directly, and then explained: "No, I mean you. The company is actually doing well internally. Although it is quite hard, the two first-party studios have now proven their abilities, and we have
It’s not that I haven’t tried too much.
Apart from "Ready Player One", there are only two projects currently being developed by the console department and PC department, and they are all on the right track, and we can always get it done."
"But before, even during the multi-open period, you missed the development schedule of the console department and PC department, right? Now, multiple projects in the two departments are launched simultaneously, plus the mobile department...and You Media."
"The staff of our two departments together occupy more than half of the entire building, but there is only one person."
Zhong Xiu spread his hands and expressed his worries.
"This."
Lin Yao showed a clear expression when she heard this, and then smiled and said: "So I just told Zhu Nianqiao that this new project is a little different from the previous one, and I will give out the plan and basic settings as before.
However, I won’t follow the specific production. To put it simply, it’s all up to you how to make it.”
"……ah?"
Zhong Xiu was stunned.
This model is not common in Linmu Studio.
Although Lin Yao can be quite lazy sometimes, she will follow up on most projects, because no matter how detailed the text is, there are limitations, and at this time she needs to take on the responsibility of the producer.
This is also the reason why most of Linmu Studio’s game producers have Lin Yao’s name in their column.
At the same time, this is also the reason why players feel that it would be impossible without her.
"Is that why it's called special training?"
At this time, Zhu Nianqiao, who was standing next to him, interrupted.
Lin Yao nodded and said with a smile: "Yes, of course you can find me if you have no other choice, but I still hope that you can completely abandon me this time and make a plan with the existing planning book and basic settings.
game.
Then absorb and learn as much as possible, and then conceive and create a game from scratch from the planning stage..."
Zhong Xiu: "..."
Zhu Nianqiao: "..."
The two looked at each other, then looked at Lin Yao, their expressions a little complicated.
"What are you doing? You also want to say goodbye?"
Lin Yao blinked, and then said with a smile: "Don't look like that, a game company always needs fresh blood. My existence can indeed save a lot of trouble, but there will always be a day when I run out of inspiration.
Besides, don’t you have any games you want to make?”
"..."
Both of them fell silent.
Of course there is.
Even both of them tried it.
"So, this is still necessary. After the above plan is completed, it will be your turn to accumulate more and more."
Lin Yao saw their expressions and immediately knew that she was right. She raised a white finger and pointed at the Future PAD: "Just treat this as the last big test."
Zhu Nianqiao muttered: "To be honest, it's still hard to imagine us making games alone without you..."
It's really unimaginable.
Because even the game "Tracking" independently planned by the console department some time ago.
Lin Yao also contributed a lot.
rather say.
The entire game framework was proposed by Lin Yao.
Under this situation, Zhu Nianqiao really couldn't imagine a scenario where he was 'independent'.
Lin Yao replied: "So isn't this the beginning of the rehearsal?"
Zhu Nianqiao: "..."
"But even so, it should be enough, right?"
Zhong Xiu was silent for a moment, then looked down at the Future PAD in front of him again, and said: "With so many games, it is probably difficult to sort out the ideas, determine the framework and all the basic settings, right? Since it will be released before two existing projects, how long will it take?"
…”
"It's okay. I know most of the games by heart, so there's no need to worry."
"...All?" Zhong Xiu was stunned, and then looked down at the tablet.
Lin Yao corrected: "Most of them."
"..."Titanfall"?" Zhong Xiu hesitated for a moment and pointed to the first game on the tablet.
"This is an FPS game, but unlike previous FPS games, I want to make this game more technological and give players a more enjoyable gaming experience."
Lin Yao organized the wording and explained: "The plot is not complicated. The story will take place in the future. It will use a rookie rifleman as the entry point, and then describe him killing everyone, fighting against the authoritarian group, fighting for space and folding weapons, and finally
The story of saving the planet.”
"Forehead……"
When Zhong Xiu heard Lin Yao's words, he scratched his head and stopped talking.
This seems unattractive...
"The main features are the cool gun feel, the easy-to-decrypt map design, the novel experience of combining FPS and parkour, and the weapons and enemies with a full sense of technology."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Of course, there is also the most important thing...the mecha mechanism."
Lin Yao continued: "I plan to add a mecha mechanism to this game. The protagonist will fight side by side with a mecha named Titan BT7274. When necessary, he will ride in a mecha to fight against enemies who are also riding in mechas.
Players experience the fun of huge mechas fighting against each other..."
"..."
Lin Yao just finished speaking.
Zhong Xiu stood up suddenly: "Stop talking, let's make this game!"
"?" Zhu Nianqiao looked up at Zhong Xiu and slowly asked a question.
"Don't worry."
Lin Yao couldn't help laughing, but she could understand him.
A man.
All old-fashioned plots will become particularly attractive as long as huge mechas are added.
Whether it's Transformers, Pacific Rim, or Ready Player One's final Gundam.
Don't worry about the plot.
The moment the robot appears is always exciting.
"..."
Zhong Xiu noticed that Lin Yao and Zhu Nianqiao were both looking at him, so he reluctantly calmed down and sat down again.
He paused and then asked about the details of the game.
Lin Yao gave him a little explanation.
The more Zhong Xiu listened, the more excited he became, and he even started gearing up later.
Huge mechas fall from the sky, iron and blood intertwine in battle, the battlefield is baptized by gun and fire, the romance of steel...
He became excited just listening to the description.
It wasn't until I thought that I wouldn't be able to play this game for a while that I calmed down again.
He lowered his head to look at the tablet on the table again. In order to prevent himself from losing control, he took the initiative to change the question and asked casually:
"What about Bloodline?"
"This game, you can understand it this way."
Lin Yao thought for a while and replied: "It is a companion piece to the "Dark Souls" series, but compared to the "Dark Souls" series, this game will be more exploratory."
"The stage of the story is in a classical Victorian-style city. It is a miraculous medical holy place, but it is also a cursed place where strange diseases spread. The rampant "zoological" disease makes people lose their humanity and reduce them to something horrific and beyond recognition.
The beast.”
"Whenever night falls, a stranger who wraps himself tightly will appear, hunting those crazy monsters on the streets with a sharp scimitar..."
Lin Yao briefly told Zhong Xiu about this game.
After hearing this, Zhong Xiu said: "...?"
After a long time.
He spoke again and asked:
"That pixel style sandbox game..."Minecraft"?"
"This game is even more special."
Lin Yao said happily: "You know building blocks, right? This game is simply to develop the idea of building blocks into a game.
Open world, pixel style, and this game goes a step further than the ordinary open world. There are no goal restrictions or gameplay restrictions. Players can choose to be architects, survivors, adventurers, redstone technicians, PVP, or focus
For parkour, decryption, mini games, etc..."
Zhong Xiu: "..."
Zhu Nianqiao: "..."
"Assassin's Creed?" Zhong Xiu was silent for a moment and asked again.
Lin Yao spoke again.
Then.
Soon, Lin Yao's voice was the only voice left in the conference room.
Occasionally she pauses.
Zhong Xiu's voice will sound.
But often it's just a matter of spitting out the game name.
Half an hour later.
"Damn it! Don't you know everything about this!?"
Zhong Xiu looked at Lin Yao with wide eyes.
"Of course the basic idea is there."
Lin Yao nodded and said: "But this is the limit for now. It will take some time to put it on paper, and there are many things that need to be considered."
aside.
Zhu Nianqiao glanced at the tablet. After being silent for a while, he suddenly asked: "Sister, I have a question now. These games have not been in your mind for a long time, right? Just considering the company's production capabilities and work
Didn’t quality of ability come up?”
"..."
When Zhong Xiu heard Zhu Nianqiao's words, he suddenly turned his head and looked at Lin Yao again with a shocked look on his face.
No way!?
"...Why do you ask so clearly?"
Lin Yao smiled and did not answer her question directly.
Instead, he stood up, came to the front of the conference table, pulled out the marker on the whiteboard support, and said: "Now you probably understand what game you are going to make next, so let's evaluate the feasibility.
At the same time, we will evaluate how these works can be linked with the final multimedia planning and games if they can be done..."
"That's what I think."
Lin Yao picked up the marker and began to talk about her thoughts: "Add some fighters to the battle, and modify some scenes of the multimedia plan..."
beside.
Zhong Xiu was slightly lost in thought while listening to Lin Yao's narration.
do not know why.
He looked at Lin Yao's back and suddenly had a premonition.
Next year may be a miraculous year.
For the entire gaming community and all game players, this is a year that is difficult to surpass.
Even if future generations of players think about it, they will feel excited about this year!
…
The meeting didn't last long.
Lin Yao did not make a long speech.
Although she said a lot...
But this plan is not a trivial matter. Now Linmu Studio is no longer as simple as a small workshop. It is impossible for the three of them to decide everything in one meeting.
In addition, PC games account for a relatively large proportion this time, so how to collaborate between the two departments is a problem.
It also takes time to integrate and organize resources between the two departments.
so.
Lin Yao had a little discussion with the two of them, confirmed that they generally knew what they were doing, and then asked them to evaluate their internal situation.
As for Lin Yao herself, she returned to her office after coming out of the conference room.
"This is no small project."
After Lin Yao sat down, she looked at the lit computer screen and smiled softly.
anyway.
What is going on with Zhong Xiu and Zhu Nianqiao?
She will first create the game plan and basic settings.
You'll have to decide when the time comes.
certainly.
It would be better if you can leave no regrets.
"let's start."
Lin Yao stretched, then pulled the keyboard over, opened the document, and typed the first character.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! But I just added a title.
Suddenly she thought of something.
etc.
Wouldn't this be too...grand?
Lin Yao showed a thoughtful expression.
But soon, she smiled and shook her head.
never mind.
who cares.
Being grand is not a bad thing.
Just for the players to open their eyes and have fun...
…
at the same time.
external.
Topics related to the live broadcast at Linmu Studio last night are still fermenting.
Most of my colleagues originally only followed the live broadcast with the mentality of watching a show.
But I didn't expect...
However, Linmu Studio abruptly embarked on a new path that they had never imagined...
Not only did it solve the impact of Lin Yao's absence at the carnival, it also directly lifted the affected new games back to the top of the sales list.
Still three games take turns to be the first!
Moreover, they also developed a very new live broadcast...
There are really many tricks, wild paths, dimensionality reduction attacks...
And most of my peers are really greatly influenced by Lin Mu Studio.
After the live broadcast.
Just like a stress response.
Many colleagues have begun to evaluate whether there is any possibility of learning from last night's live broadcast...
Lin Yao doesn't have another one, they can't create such a god, and her own boss doesn't have the same influence as her.
But the boss and the virtual anchor live broadcast together, and it seems to be working out.
Or to be more precise.
You can't make a person like Lin Yao, but you can make a lovable two-dimensional paper man and then bring it into the game.
There seems to be something going on.
Player acceptance also seems to be high...
On this day, many colleagues began to inquire about related technologies.
Related technologies have also become very popular because of the live broadcast by Lin Mu Studio.
but.
After the related technologies were speculated for a period of time, the fever gradually subsided.
On the one hand, this is because the technology and ecology of virtual live broadcasts here are far less mature than Lin Yao's previous life.
Generally, companies want to use facial capture and motion capture technology to synchronously map the expressions and movements of real people to virtual images.
It's really troublesome.
The investment is not small.
The reason why Linmu Studio can do this is because the best and most mature motion capture studio in China is Linmu Studio’s own...
On the other hand, it's because - Linmu Studio's "Dead by Daylight" was released.
